Another quick write between classes. You've got to grab the downtime where you can find it. I didn't write a valentines sweet romantic song this year, so I thought I was overdue. When I showed my wife though, she asked, "So, is this a song from your new book's main character to his girlfriend?" Who knows, subconsciously, maybe?
Lyrics
You and I, we've been together a while now,
Things get better day by day.
What do you think about in the times we're apart?
Do you miss me just the same?
I think about you all the time
Girl, you're always on my mind
Can't get you off my, can't get you off my mind
And I wouldn't want to baby, even if I could
I've been thinking 'bout the years ahead
A little silver in your hair
Laugh lines in the corners, 'cause I still make you smile
Yeah, I think about that
I think about you all the time
Girl, you're always on my mind
Can't get you off my, can't get you off my mind
And I wouldn't want to baby, even if I could
I don't know what the future holds
I hope our thoughts align
I've got a ring in my pocket
And I want to make you mine.
I think about you all the time
Girl, you're always on my mind
Can't get you off my, can't get you off my mind
And I wouldn't want to baby, even if I could
Baby please be mine
